Amount Available for Granting in FY

$62,035

Our priorities remain the same as prior years. We will still continue to support fellowships in all discipline categories and retain our Cultural Infrastructure and Cultural Heritage categories.
We will no longer accept paper applications. All applicants must use the MCC/LCC online application found on the "Apply Now" tab.
While applicants can now submit up to 3 pdfs in support material via the MCC online portal, applicants who will be submitting JPEGs or MP3s (i.e. visual artists and perhaps musicians) will continue to submit through our Council's Google Drive account. Support materials remain a primary means in which our panelist will review your work.
You must download our 2018 LCC guidelines PDF on our website for specific directions, found here: http://somervilleartscouncil.org/grants/grantforms
In addition, help is available by attending one of our three information sessions held in September, found here:
